A tanker carrying Russian oil had an accident

An oil tanker illegally transporting Russian oil had an accident off the coast of Denmark.

A tanker from the so-called “shadow fleet” had an accident near Denmark, Bloomberg  reports.

The incident with the 15-year-old Andromeda Star oil tanker took place on March 2, the Danish Maritime Authority said in a statement. The case is still under investigation.

The vessel was due to load Russia’s flagship Urals crude on March 4 at the Baltic port of Primorsk, according to shipping information compiled by Bloomberg. Instead, he went to a repair yard in Denmark.

The USM previously reported that the Russian ship “Alexander Deev” was damaged, probably after colliding with an ice pack at the Vanino-Kholmsk crossing.
